a video emerged from Angola depicting a figure seemingly walking atop the ocean’s surface. Local residents believe this apparition to be the spirit of Mano Chaba, a young kuduro musician who tragically drowned that same day.
Mano Chaba, born in 2006, was a rising star in Angola’s music scene, known for hits like “Sonhos” and “Regra do Jogo.”
Despite not knowing how to swim, he was enjoying a day at the beach on the Ilha de Luanda when the unfortunate incident occurred.
Witnesses reported that Mano Chaba was in high spirits, engaging with friends and fans, even conducting a live video where he mentioned his inability to swim and playfully invited viewers to teach him. Tragically, shortly after, he ventured into the water and drowned.
Rescue teams attempted to save him, but their efforts were in vain. His untimely death at the age of 17 has left a significant void in the Angolan artistic community.
The mysterious video has since fueled local beliefs and speculations, with many convinced that the figure seen walking on water is the spirit of Mano Chaba, returning to bid farewell or convey a message.
This incident has sparked discussions about spirituality and the afterlife within the community, blending traditional beliefs with the mourning of a beloved artist.
As the video circulates, it serves as a poignant reminder of Mano Chaba’s impact on Angolan culture and the deep connection between the artist and his audience.
